How can they talk out of both sides of their mouths?!?!

They say "100k" after the ridiculous lifetime recommendation...but still say we don't recommend it due to the 'increased risk': Which is it?

It is an easy answer: do it at 30-40k, just a gentle fluid change, and then you'll never risk loosening sludge or what not.

neil- with that many miles I'd be worried too. Do you think they will make it to 200k? With that original fluid? poor next owner

I'd love to get an oil analysis on that 9 year old ATF to see how well it protects.
